Having read through the information gathered, Mama Mu felt some questions were answered as well as new questions.
No wonder she could not reach Su Zipei... they were receiving financial support from a rich person.
However, how could a poor woman like her and an abandoned child get acquainted with someone like that?
Mama Mu hence planned a trip to the small mansion to meet her sister and learn the whole truth.
Later, Mu Tangxue also learned that Mu Qiqi was attending Eaton because she was receiving backing from some tycoon. However, she had also learned from her aunt's former neighbor that Mu Qiqi was dragged off to be sold.
In other words, Mu Qiqi might be drawing benefits from an illicit relationship!
Mu Tangxue smiled at the very thought. Here she had been thinking what trick Mu Qiqi was using to rise above herself. How filthy!
That being said, how would she let her father know that Mu Qiqi was using her own body to get rich?

In the afternoon, Mama Mu headed out for the small mansion. However, the security guards stopped her when her car approached the address, although they were willing to help her relay a message.
Su Zipei did not expect that Mama Mu would show up so quickly. Still, her position was assured and there was nothing to fearher only desire was for Mu Qiqi to have a good life, and she could clearly feel that she was happy with the Sheng family.
She laughed coldly at the thought of her niece returning to the Mu family. What, is she going to let her be tormented again?
Grooming up a little, Su Zipei went to the mansion gates and found her sister.
She did not receive her warmly like before.
"Zipei... let's go to a café nearby..."
"Skip the café. Say what you have to sayI still have to cook for Qiqi later." Su Zipei simply opened her sister's car door and planted herself on the seat. "What is it?"
Mama Mu did not expect that Su Zipei could be so cold towards her, and made a pained smile.
"You're blaming me for not helping Qiqi."
Su Zipei said nothing, but merely kept her eyes staring straight ahead.
"You know your brother-in-law's temper very well..
. I..."
"You don't have to explain a thing. If you weren't so fearful of losing your place, you wouldn't have stayed silent when your daughter is being disowned!" Su Zipei said coldly. "They are both twins, and yet only Qiqi is thrown away!"
"Zipei..."
"Don't call me, don't come looking for us. Qiqi is living well nowshe isn't eating from your table, and she certainly doesn't need your money. You must be happy that your daughter is being raised by someone else. What else do you want?" Su Zipei's words were almost overexcited.
"I don't know how it came to this either..." Mama Mu put her hands over her face and leaned on the steering wheel. "I didn't want that... but Qiqi killed her own grandmother."
"And what evidence do you have to prove that? Mu Tangxue's words?" Su Zipei's smile became even colder.
"Tangxue wouldn't lie..."
"And Qiqi would? Well, whatever. It's not like it was just a few times your preferential treatment reared its ugly head. Either way, Qiqi won't go back, and if there's any goodness left in your head, don't trouble Qiqi. She has no ties with the Mu family."
With those words, Su Zipei opened the door and was about to get off, but Mama Mu stopped her.
"Zipei, don't go. Have you thought about what your brother-in-law would think if he knows?"
"So what? Is Qiqi not allowed to receive help so that the Mu family stays happy? Is she supposed to live in poverty, and being sold is what she deserved? Is that what you want?"
When she saw that Mama Mu was left speechless, Su Zipei smiled and opened the door. "There is a saying that the weak are the vilest. You are no longer my sister from today, so don't ever come here again. I won't meet you even if you do!"
